In front of the towering iron gates of White River City's Library …
Aside from a large number of NPCs entering and exiting the building, there were also many players crowding around the iron gates. No matter how hard they tried, they could not enter the building. These players were all trying to befriend the NPCs passing by, increasing their intimacy with the NPCs, hoping that the NPCs would lead them into the building.
There were even some good-looking female players using all sorts of methods to seduce the noble NPCs.
Meanwhile, the ones doing these things were all magical class players, such as Elementalists, Cursemancers, and Summoners.
As for why these players wanted to enter the library?
It was because they wanted to learn powerful skills. Aside from monsters and Dungeons, some of the more commonly used magical class skills could be learned in the library. As for healers, they could learn them in the Light Temple, unlike other physical classes, who could only learn them from Class Instructors in the Apocalypse Temple.
Shi Feng's White River City Guidebook had already mentioned this. Hence, they had come to the library. After all, compared to weapons and equipment, it was much easier to upgrade skills.
As long as players could learn these advanced skills, their strength would increase significantly. However, learning these advanced skills was not cheap. One also needed to complete a series of quests, which was very time-consuming. Hence, Shifeng had not bothered to learn them all this time. After all, the skills he had learned were not the slightest bit inferior to advanced class skills. Naturally, there was no need for him to waste his time learning them.
Seeing Shifeng walk towards the library's gates, some players coldly watched from the sidelines, sneers appearing on their faces.
"Look, another newcomer dares to enter."
"How many people has this been?"
"Let's see how the guards kick him out in a moment."
Most of them had suffered at the hands of the guards at the gates. As they did not have a pass, they would be kicked out by the guards if they tried to enter. At best, they would be kicked out. At worst, they would be locked up. However, only players who liked to cause trouble would receive such treatment.
Just as Shifeng was about to reach the locked iron gates, a female Elementalist pulled Shifeng back.
"You don't have a library pass. Those guards will kick players out. It's best if you don't get close to them, "the female player kindly reminded.
Naturally, Shifeng knew this. However, the other party had good intentions. Hence, he turned to look at the female player who pulled him back.
Suddenly, he discovered that the female player who stopped him was very beautiful. Among female Elementalists, only the Flame Witch Zhao Yueru could surpass her. She also wore Mysterious-Iron Equipment. Although they were all below Level 10 weapons and equipment, they were still valuable. Moreover, the female player before him was an independent player. The difficulty of obtaining equipment was far lower than that of Guild players.
However, when Shi Feng saw this female player, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity. However, he did not know where he had seen this female player before. Immediately, he used Observing Eyes to check her name.
Thoughtful Rain.
Shifeng did not have any recollection of this ID, but he was certain that there was no female expert with this name in his previous life. If it was not a female expert, then what was with this sense of familiarity?
Shifeng shook his head. Since he couldn't figure it out, then so be it. Maybe it was just an illusion caused by his rebirth.
"Thank you," Shifeng said.
"If you want to enter the library, you'd better get a pass first. Or you can try to get on the good side of other NPC nobles. They will have a pass in their hands. " Thoughtful Rain faintly smiled. She discovered that Shifeng players could still express their gratitude. So, she pointed at the nearby NPC NPC that was surrounded by players. He said softly.
"Miss Si Yu, are you going to enter the library as well?" Shifeng asked.
"Mhm. However, those NPC nobles are simply too despicable. So, I was just thinking of leaving to obtain a pass elsewhere," Thoughtful Rain said, nodding her head. However, when she spoke of those fat NPC nobles, she felt a wave of disgust.
"Since that is the case, why don't you enter with me, Miss Si Yu?" Shifeng said.
"Enter?" Thoughtful Rain asked, slightly surprised. "Do you have a pass?"
"I don't," Shifeng explained, shaking his head. "However, I have other ways of entering."
"That's impossible, right? The guards only recognize passes or people related to the library." Thoughtful Rain revealed an expression of disbelief, as if she were saying that Shi Feng was lying to her.
Shifeng chuckled, not bothering to explain. He then walked towards the entrance. Before Thoughtful Rain could stop him, Shifeng was discovered by the guards.
The players who were watching coldly from afar laughed.
"This noob wants to show off when he sees a beauty. Let's see how the guards kick his butt and toss him out."
"With his size, I'm guessing that he'll be kicked ten yards away. If he causes a ruckus again, the guards will capture him and hang him on display at the entrance."
"No, that's not right. Last time, that tall and strong Berserker was kicked ten yards away. I bet that he'll be kicked fifteen yards away."
Just as everyone's faces were filled with mockery, the guards approached Shi Feng.
"Halt!" One of the robust guards suddenly blocked Shifeng's path with his weapon. In a cold tone, he said, "You need to show a pass to enter the library."
"Can't I even be a Demon Hunter?" Shifeng changed his title from Strength of a Thousand to Demon Hunter, asking once more.
"So, it is Lord Demon Hunter. Please forgive my rudeness." The guard immediately sheathed his spear, his expression incomparably respectful. He was even more respectful than when he met the nobles of White River City.
This stunned the onlooking players. Their mouths were wide open, and they couldn't say a word.
They had tried every possible means to obtain a pass from the nobles, yet this noob before them had nearly caused the guard to kneel with just a few words.
Could this be a legendary secret code, or perhaps a passcode?
Shifeng nodded at the guard. He then pointed at Thoughtful Rain and said, "She is my friend. However, she does not have a pass. May I know if she can enter with me? I can be her guarantor."
"Of course. Since she is Lord Demon Hunter's friend, she can naturally enter." The guard glanced at Thoughtful Rain. She was definitely a great beauty. He then turned to Shifeng, a look of understanding appearing on his face. Hurriedly, he said, "In addition, there is a Library Member Emblem here. It will allow Lord Demon Hunter's friend to enter the library as he wishes."
Saying so, the guard respectfully handed the Library Emblem to Shifeng.
Shifeng was slightly stunned. He never thought that these NPC guards would become so intelligent after God's Domain's first evolution.
However, Shi Feng did not stand on ceremony and accepted the Library Pass. The Library Pass could only be used once. In other words, the Library Pass could only be used to enter and leave the Library once. However, learning skills could not be completed in one go. On the other hand, the Library Member Emblem allowed players to freely enter and leave the Library without any restrictions. This was a privilege that only the great nobles of White River City had.
"Miss Rain, keep this Library Member Emblem well. In the future, just wear this emblem and you will be able to enter and leave the library as you wish. These guards will not stop you," Shifeng said as he handed the emblem to Thoughtful Rain, who was still in a daze.
Following which, the two entered the library under everyone's gazes.
Some of the players were stupefied when they saw this scene. Some of the female players even revealed envious expressions as they watched Thoughtful Rain's beautiful figure.
At this moment, the players that had previously mocked Shifeng all ran to the library's entrance.
"Halt!" The guard at the entrance stopped everyone, coldly saying, "You need to show a pass to enter the library."
"Not even I am a Demon Hunter?" These players repeated Shifeng's words, inwardly praising themselves for being so smart.
"How bold of you to pretend to be a Lord Demon Hunter!" The guard was enraged when he did not discover the Demon Hunter title after looking around.
In the end, these "smart people" all met with tragedy …
